Ellens531 81 Posted July 9, 2018 Since I've been off work for a few I figured now is the time to make an appt with new Dr since my insurance changed and can't go to the Dr i started with. At about 9:15 am I left a message for the bariatric person. I haven't received a call back. Not sure if I should try again tomorrow or give them more time before I call again. Thoughts?Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canis28 14 Posted July 9, 2018 My doctor’s office in NJ usually doesn’t return my calls the same day. I’ve just learned that’s how they role. I would call again tomorrow. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canis28 14 Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) Vadim Gritsus. He’s in Pequonnock and Paramus. I live in NY but used him for my (failed) gastric sleeve when I lived in NJ and I really like him. Edited July 9, 2018 by Canis28 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellens531 81 Posted July 10, 2018 Trivedi did my sister’s sleeve. You don’t like him?It's not that. I wanted him but work recently changed insurance and he's not in my plan anymoreSent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ellens531 81 Posted July 10, 2018 So I left a message just after 9 am yesterday and no call today and it's after 5 pm so I can't even call them. Guess I'll be leaving another message tomorrow Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canis28 14 Posted July 10, 2018 That’s a little worrying. I wouldn’t give them more than 2 chances to return the call. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted July 11, 2018 Amen to that! There many many physician- fish in the waters of New Jersey. Don't settle for bottom feeders or being treated like pond scum. You deserve the best, and than does not include being ignored. 1 Canis28 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ellens531 81 Posted July 20, 2018 Met with Dr. I need to do an initial nutrition appt then 3 more before surgery. I need to do sleep test and Doppler of my legs. Then the psychiatrist. I need to make sure sleep study is covered. I don't want to get hit with a bill. Same with Doppler Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PALOMABELLA 45 Posted August 3, 2018 Vadim Gritsus. He’s in Pequonnock and Paramus. Hi. Im new here and i have my first appointment with Dr. Vadim. For next week...i heard he is calm. Sincere. Explaines everything real good n also listens patiently all concerns really good.
